Deploy containerized apps

Kubernetes applications are
enterprise-ready containerized solutions with prebuilt
deployment templates, featuring portability, simplified
licensing, and consolidated billing. They can be run on
Anthos,
in the cloud, on-premises, or on Kubernetes clusters hosted in
other environments. These are not just container images, but
open-source, Google-built, and commercial applications that
increase developer productivity, available now on GCP
Marketplace.

Run anywhere

Kubernetes applications can be deployed to Anthos in the
cloud or on-premises (on-premises deployment currently in
beta), and to Kubernetes clusters hosted in other
environments. They feature the same portability and
consistency between environments you would expect from any
other solution running on open-source containers.

Be more productive

Create new applications or modernize existing applications
with enterprise-ready containerized solutions that deploy
quickly so you spend less time setting up and more time
developing. Kubernetes applications are not just container
images — they feature prebuilt deployment templates and
default configurations.

Simplify billing

Usage metering follows the application no matter where it is
deployed or to which environment you move it. Billing takes
place only through GCP and is consolidated with the rest of
your spend, resulting in just one bill. Lastly, you pay only
for what you use, with our transparent consumption-based
billing model.

Features

Integrated with Anthos

When you deploy on Anthos, you get a uniform view across
all of your environments for simple management and a
consistent experience.

Verified deployment templates (beta)

Kubernetes applications are verified by Google to deploy to
Anthos in the cloud and on-premises.

Solutions to solve your problems

Innovate with containerized applications available for big
data, analytics, networking, security, databases, developer
tools, and more, all built to run in Kubernetes
environments.

Vulnerability tested

All solutions listed on GCP Marketplace are tested and
vetted by Google against security vulnerabilities.

Free and paid options

GCP Marketplace offers free software versions from
commercial vendors and open-source projects. There are also
paid solution offerings from popular commercial vendors,
which feature usage-based and subscription pricing options.

DevOps ready

Kubernetes applications are ready to integrate with
best-practice production release and deployment workflows.
Container images, and configuration source code, are
published to customers and apps are packaged using popular
open-source frameworks such as Helm.

Solution documentation

Each solution has a user guide, provided by the vendor and
reviewed by Google, that includes command-line instructions
for installation and common operations like installation,
upgrades, backup, and scaling.

Open-source standards

We work with open-source special interest groups (SIGs)
such as SIG-apps and the Application standard, bringing the
knowledge of the open-source community to your enterprise.

Flexible usage parameters

Paid solutions may be metered on any number of factors
including API calls, number of hosts, storage per month,
etc., so your charges are transparent and straightforward.

Maintenance and support

Commercial solutions listed on GCP Marketplace are fully
supported by each vendor, with contact information listed so
you can get help when you need it. Additionally, vendors
have contracts with Google to provide long-term maintenance
and support.

One billing relationship

All solutions deployed from GCP Marketplace are billed by
Google, eliminating the need to set up contracts with
multiple vendors.
